he said N60...film camera.

if you wanna go film, it;s a decent entry level SLR...i have an N65 that i enjoyed right up until i got my DSLR last spring.

Nikon n60 is a 35mm (film) SLR. Could it possibly be a D60 if the person selling said it was digital?

Incorrect! By saying "N60" it in effect said "film".

you seem like a nice guy...and interested in photography. so that's good.
may i just suggest that in the future, you google stuff before you get on forums post up like what you state is fact? this is the second day in a row you have displayed this "know-it-all" attitude when, in fact, you have been DEAD WRONG both times. if someone told you it was digital, and someone else says it's film, your first move would be to either ask someone who knows, or google it so you know for sure before you post and look silly...again.

sry for the rant, but cmon dude...

The Nikon N60 (known outside the U.S. as the F60) is a 35mm film SLR that was aimed at the lower end of the amateur autofocus SLR market. This camera was made and sold by Nikon between late 1998 and 2001. It replaced the N50 (F50).

Nikon also produced a variant known as the N60D (F60D) that had a date/time-imprinting feature added to the camera.
